The West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL) is a German initiative and will be funded [for the first five (5) years] by the German Ministry of Science and Education (BMBF). The WASCAL Program is novel in concept and international in scope. One of the major aims of WASCAL is the establishment of Graduate Research Programs (GRPs) in about six (6) foremost Universities across West Africa. The Federal University of Technology, Akure, was selected as the Lead University for the Graduate Research Program (GRP) on the West African Climate System. The program is for the training of Ph. D students only in all aspects of the West African Climate System. The other GRPs are in specific fields, e.g. GRP in Climate Change and Water; Climate Change and Land Use, Climate Change and Economic systems, etc.
